  1. Windows 10 freezes after login


    It happened to me when I was browsing the internet, PC suddenly frozen and couldn't do anything, only mouse cursor was visible and I could move it, so I restarted, after that I couldn't run the PC correctly, cause it would always freeze after signing in. After some time the Blue Screen pops-up with Stop Code ''IRQL_DRIVERS_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL''


    When I was browsing internet I founded 1 solution which I could found in different places; I have tried to go to Safe Mode and disable Graphics Card in Device manager, I did it but it didn't worked out, after that PC was also freezing in the safe mode as well.


    PC Boots up propely by a pure luck after a lot of system resets.


    This is not memory issue, as I still have 400GBs of free space on my HDD22GB of free space out of 116GB where my system is installed in. This is also not caused by virus. I doubt it's overheating issue, I was only browsing internet when it first happened, the issue was repeating all the time when I tried to run PC.

  2. Windows 10 Freezes on Login

    Hi Jastin,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    I understand your concern about accessing the operating system after logging-in as it freezes, we will help you with this issue.

    Do let us know the following to assist you better with this issue:

    • Does this issue persists, when you try to open any application or generally as soon you log-in?
    • Were you able to see any error code/ error message when the device freezes?
    • How have you installed Windows 10 (Upgrade/ Clean installation)?

    I suggest you to try few of the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to run the System maintenance troubleshooter.

    System Maintenance troubleshooter finds and clean up unused files and shortcuts and performs maintenance tasks.

    • Press Windows key and type
      Troubleshooting.
    • Select Troubleshooting and hit
      Enter.
    • Click on View all in the left pane of the window.
    • Select System Maintenance.
    • Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.

    Step 2: I suggest you to
    run SFC scan.

    System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Right click on the Start button, click on
      Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
      Enter.
    • After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.

    Step 3: Please try to run the Windows Defender to check for the virus on your device.

    Refer to: Security & privacy


    Note: Data or files which are infected by malware might be beyond cleaning and have to be deleted entirely to maintain the integrity of your system, which means there might be a potential for data loss.

    Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of this issue, we will be happy to help you further.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
